65. Louisiana which has not performed well since Right to work passed.

Nov 2012

Wages not much more than minimum wages, turned red and they don't have a clue. The governor is cutting retirement to state workers, probably happy to see social security cut and thinks he is on his way to Washington. They should be kicking his butt. They hate minorities, cried like a baby wanting President Obama to come to the Gulf Coast after the BP oil spill. If he was ready for Washington he should have performed better in Louisiana.
